Admission is a waste of time (89)
Lesson 19. Changeling – 4
There were three main reasons why Ban Yu-won gave mummy a makeover.
First, Mira’s mental state was not normal.
I don’t intend to talk nonsense like reducing the sentence due to mental weakness.
Not only did Mira have all sorts of negative emotions gathered in her body from the moment Ban Yu-won first saw her, but she was also possessed by the constellation more seriously than the people who drank the potion, perhaps fundamentally much more seriously.
It is not known how long she has been in contact with the constellations.
However, at the stage where she was receiving conditional support from the constellation (it seemed like she was hiding it, but Ban Yu-won immediately noticed this), her mind was already significantly eroded by the constellation.
Her reason would have been thickly fogged, and her judgment and actions would not have been purely her will.
‘It must have been because I had a pretty good compatibility with that constellation. … … No, I should say it was bad.’
Of course, no matter how much she was possessed by the constellations, the sins Mira committed would not disappear.
But Ban Yu-won thought that it was unreasonable for her to end up becoming a complete wreck because of her unrequited love that went wild.
Her curse wasn’t the kind that took people’s lives, and even then, it was stopped in advance by Ban Yu-won’s efforts.
Second, Ban Yoo-won felt resentment towards the attitude of the president and other faculty members in dealing with this situation.
Let’s say it’s a good idea to let students compete healthily among themselves and develop themselves.
But their attitude of not interfering with what happens until someone dies is unbearable because it feels like, “You get the general idea? Let’s kill each other from now on.”
Moreover, in this case, the constellations were involved.
If they had dealt with it before it got worse, Mira would have just ended up as a victim, and the repercussions wouldn’t have spread to the other students.
However, because we left it alone, saying we would leave it up to the students, an irreversible situation almost occurred.
During his interview with Ban Yoo-won, the president emphasized that what he had to do was to solve the problem, not to detoxify it.
Was it meant to give him a hint?
No, I just wanted to make sure he could do it right.
Detoxification is simply the disappearance of the poison and that’s it.
Because the rebound happens to the person who gives the drink.
The president must have wanted to use Ban Yoo-won to resolve this situation while also punishing Mira, the culprit, in one fell swoop.
The academy’s attitude towards students, and himself being given the role of driving Mira into danger under instructions from the academy…
Ban Yu-won did not like all this, and as a result, he did not want to take on the role of a beheader who would make a female student worse than death.
Mira rebelled because she was more angry at the president’s attitude of treating people like pawns than because she felt compassion for him.
Even though he knew what the director wanted, he intercepted the punishment that should have been given to Mira.
Since Ban Yu-won has taken care of everything, there is nothing the Academy can do.
If Ketra just keeps her mouth shut and lets it go, Mira might be able to continue to be a student council officer.
Since the incident has lost its head and tail, leaving only the body, some people, including the president, may be dissatisfied… … .
Solo exploration authority? Honestly, it would be nice to have, but it’s not necessary.
Ban Yu-won never regretted the things he did based on his own judgment.
It will be the same this time too.
Finally, the third reason is simply because Mira was greedy.
She is a fairy and possesses the extraordinary power of changeling.
At the same time, he is also a person with great abilities, capable of tricking the members of Union Academy, a place where only geniuses from all dimensions gather, into a fraudulent contract.
There is no need to say anything more about the magical abilities that he has honed over the past two years at this academy, and the knowledge that he possesses as a senior in the Artifact Creation Department.
If you can decide the future of such a person, wouldn’t it be better to keep him alive and use him rather than letting him become a useless person?
‘There aren’t many opportunities to unilaterally conclude a contract where I have the upper hand.’
And this is a slightly different issue, but assuming that she was saved for the first and second reasons above, the reason why Mira was bound by the word contract was that she could not be left alone after being freed from the curse.
Whether or not she was possessed by a constellation, it is clear that she intended to harm an unspecified number of Academy students and Ketra.
Even if the curse is lifted, there’s no guarantee that her mental state will improve, so obviously someone has to be holding the leash.
“So, you don’t really have any intention of doing anything weird to your senior?”
“Right now, you know.”
“It’s now and it’s late… … .”
The ‘contract’ between the two was successful, and now the concept of a brilliant golden light was confirmed within Mira’s body.
In exchange for the contract, Ban Yu-won frees Mira from her suffering, and in return, Mira must give Ban Yu-won everything she has.
In effect, it is a slave contract, but it is still a ‘contract’ and not ‘subordination’.
Ban Yu-won, who momentarily pictured Ruchel in his mind, shook his head and swept away the wicked fantasy.
“Anyway, don’t worry. Nearly 80% of this was a measure to prevent a recurrence of a runaway like this.”
“What about the remaining 20%?”
“darkness.”
“To be honest.”
Mira seemed relieved to hear the answer she wanted, took a sip of her newly ordered coffee, and smiled faintly.
It was a cafe mocha.
“Run.”
“That would be sweet.”
“Yeah, it’s delicious.”
I was amazed.
It was only a few minutes ago that he was drooling and writhing in pain, and now he was smiling with such grace.
They say that women’s transformation is innocent, but is that because transformation was originally a passive skill for women?
Ban Yu-won lost his mind as he realized her aristocratic beauty anew, but then came to his senses and opened his mouth as he saw her gaze directed at him.
“What do you want to do in the future?”
“Can I decide?”
“As long as it’s not something like dropping out.”
“I have no intention of dropping out.”

Mira, who had said so bluntly, took another sip of her coffee and seemed to be thinking about something.
“I think it would be good for you to continue to be in the student council. That would be helpful to you.”
And he added.
Ban Yu-won felt a little strange about her feminine attitude.
Then I realized.
It would be natural to resent Ban Yoo-won for forcing the contract on his own weaknesses, but it felt strange because he seemed to have accepted his changed situation too meekly and quickly adapted.
“Well, that’s true.”
“Okay, then I’ll finish talking to Ketra.”
Really lightly.
She emptied her glass, saying Ketra’s name nonchalantly.
Then, as she was about to stand up, Ban Yu-won grabbed her in embarrassment.
“Are you okay? Ketra-senpai, that… … .”
“Ketra will forgive me. Probably.”
“That’s not the point.”
“Then what’s important?”
Isn’t it the love-hate feelings you had for Ketra that are important?
Ban Yu-won, who was about to say that, lost his words when he saw Mira’s overly transparent eyes looking down at him while half standing up.
It was at that moment that I realized that her mind was not fully restored, but was merely barely reconstructed from the brink of collapse.
At that moment, my inner thoughts just poured out of my mouth.
“Did I really do well… …?”
“At least I feel grateful.”
Even though the front and back were cut off, Mira seemed to understand everything.
She said with that peculiar, strange smile that made it difficult to read her true feelings.
“Thanks to you, I feel like I’ve been reborn. Maybe you’re a better ‘changeling’ master than me.”
“Changeling, what the heck… … .”
-Daughter.
The cafe door opened and a customer came in.
Mira shrugged when she saw a familiar face and sat back down.
“It saves me the trouble of having to go there.”
“mummy!”
It seems that Ketra was looking for Mira, contrary to the previous situation.
In that regard, the amulet he had been given was designed to react the moment harm was done, unlike a potion that would cleanly fulfill its role and disappear once taken.
Perhaps he could have seen the moment the curse was cast, that it bounced off him without touching him, and if he was good, he could have even figured out its structure and principles.
“Mira, you really… … are your juniors?”
He opened his eyes wide at the sight of Mira and walked towards her with brisk strides. Then, when he realized the presence of Ban Yu-won sitting across from her, he blinked in surprise.
“What happened to your junior? What were you talking about with Mira?”
“secret.”
“It’s a secret, you… … .”
Mira gestured gracefully, calling Ketra to the table where they were sitting.
Watching Ketra obediently follow along with an expression that seemed as if she couldn’t understand the situation, Ban Yu-won felt as if he had seen a cross-section of their relationship.
“Explain, Mira. Is this really what you did? And why are you two together?”
“I’ll explain it simply, so listen carefully.”
It was shameless of her to say such a thing when she was in the position of asking for forgiveness.
“If you’re talking about that potion, then it was my fault. I wanted a contract with the constellation. That’s why I put a curse on you.”
“What, you… … .”
Strictly speaking, it wasn’t Ketra herself who was cursed, but the curse was designed to be switched with Ketra so that if the curse were to flow back, he would take the damage in Mira’s place. But now it doesn’t matter what happens.
“It was almost a big deal because this guy found out about it all… … but it’s all resolved now.”
“… … I knew it. My junior Ban Yu-won gave me an amulet. An amulet that neutralizes external interference. Because of it, I had to substitute all the subjects I was supposed to take the test on today.”
“Thanks to that, I survived, thank goodness. In fact, I survived thanks to this man, too.”
“Yeah, I see.”
The victim (attempted perpetrator) nodded with a look of understanding at the cold words of the culprit (attempted perpetrator).
Ban Yu-won did not want to be in the same space as the two of them any longer, but it was not an atmosphere in which he could escape alone.
“So, you came to ask me that?”
“No, that’s fine. No one was hurt anyway. I just wanted to ask why you put a curse on me. I thought we were pretty close… … .”
“That’s what I’m talking about.”
Mira said without even raising an eyebrow.
“Actually, I’ve always hated you, Ketra. That’s why I put a curse on you.”
“……what?”
“I’ll apologize, so I hope we can cut ties using this as an opportunity.”
“wait for a sec.”
“I guess we’ll have to meet face to face in the future since I’m a student council officer… … Or maybe you want to kick me out of the student council?”
“No, that’s not it. I said it’s okay. But… … .”
“Okay, then there’s no problem.”
Does this woman really think there’s no problem?
Ban Yu-won sighed in shock.
The next moment, without any warning, a dagger emerged from Ketra’s arms and was aimed at Ban Yu-won’s neck.
“Junior Ban Yu-won, what did you do to Mira?”
“oh…….”
Fast and strong.
Honestly, I didn’t even see his hands move.
As Ban Yu-won, who was vaguely impressed by the true skills of a ‘senior’, saw this, Mira opened her eyes and floated a purple-colored mass of magic power over one hand.
It was funny to see the clerk gaping in confusion at the sudden ominous situation unfolding inside the cafe.
“Mira, you… … ?!”
“Ketra, if you touch that man, I won’t forgive you.”
“But no matter how much I think about it, you’re in a strange state right now. I can’t help but think that you did something to your junior.”
As expected, it seems like not just anyone can become the student council vice president.
You saw through that fact in one breath!
But Mira just laughed.
“You really don’t know anything about me.”
“… … I don’t know anything?”
“Put the dagger away. Before I actually shoot you.”
Ketra suddenly removed the dagger from Ban Yu-won’s neck as if the strength had left her body.
Then Mira also disappeared from the magic sphere and spoke to him in a calm tone as if the previous confrontation had never happened.
“Thank you for forgiving me this time. Then, starting tomorrow, I ask that you take good care of me as a fellow student council officer, senior.”
“… … .”
It was a curse.
Ketra stepped back from them with a still unconvinced look on her face.
Mira seemed to ignore him already and ordered another cafe mocha. (The waiter took the order trembling.)
He took one last glance at her, then sighed, placing one hand on his forehead.
It seemed that he had only just realized that he could not have a proper conversation with her.
“Junior Ban Yu-won, later… …let’s talk about it just the two of us.”
“Yes, let’s do that.”
“Okay, then… … That’s all for today.”
Ketra opened the cafe door and went out.
Ban Yu-won stared at his back as he walked away from her through the window, then opened her mouth.
“There must have been another way.”
“We were just being faithful to our contract.”
“What the heck.”
“Really. I can’t waste my emotions on that guy anymore.”
“That would be true,” Mira said, clinging to her new coffee cup.
“Now everything I have is yours.”
“……huh?”
Ban Yu-won wanted to ask what that meant, but he ended up keeping his mouth shut for fear that she would say something strange again because she was in a strange mental state.
